  • Applying End Offset to Fade Words Out

    Posted by Christopher Mcdonell on October 3, 2018 at 5:05 am

    I thought this would be easy but after an hour of trying everything, and searching online, I can’t figure it out. I have 5 lines of text that fade in. I want to fade out using Fade Out Words and stop leaving the last line on the screen.

    Shouldn’t I be able to just change the End Offset with a keyframe so the animation finishes where I want it to?

    Can anyone help me? Thanks!

    That’s not the way End Offset works. End Offset essentially moves the end of the fade forward in the timeline. In other words, it’s how many frames before the end of the Behavior it actually ends.

    I’ve tried to figure out a way to do what you want and haven’t yet been able to figure it out.
